Individual Coaching was more effective to me than therapy has been. My coach was able to understand my wanting to improve my mental health to be a better version of myself and not just to avoid a meltdown. After coaching, I relate to my own emotions more intimately than before and feel less overwhelmed by emotional turmoil. My coach cared deeply about my progress and wellbeing and couldn't have represented HG any better.

Do not sign up. Coaches are amazing, coaching changed my life for the better, but the company is very hypocritical. They burn out their coaches, underpay them, treat them without respect and then fire them on short notice, its ridiculous that they claim to be promoting mental health. Find a private coach, there should be enough former experienced HG coaches out there now that so many have been let go in favour of cheaper new hires.

I'm not exaggerating when I say coaching with Dimitri at Health Gamer changed my life and the life of our family. I came to coaching desperate to change our situation with my son. Nothing I was doing was working, I was making things worse actually. Fast forward to after coaching, I've never been more excited about my son's future than now. He's back in school, focused on his health, and actually talks about his future. Fair warning: coaching made me realize that I was the problem. It was not about getting my son to behave the way I wanted. It was about rebuilding a relationship that I had partially destroyed through my actions/inaction. We have 100% done that now and I'm so grateful for the coaching for this.

I went into coaching because I needed educated perspective on myself and my life situation; I didn't understand myself or my problems. My coach helped me through my Alexithymia, sharing perspective but also educating and tailoring ways for me to go about understanding myself on my own. I'm leaving coaching confident that I understand where to go from here.

I worked with one of their coaches, Kayla. She's the best one around though I'm sure they're all great. HG helped give me a place to grow and learn to take care of myself. Coach Kay was incredibly caring and supportive. It's hard to put to words, but you're in good hands coming here.

Like many other young adults these days, I have a social media addiction. It was so bad that I would literally binge social media all day every day, despite having tons of work to do. A few months ago, I decided to disable all my social media accounts. It was actually Dr. K's video "The Real Effects of Internet Addiction" that finally convinced me to do this. Because I had a lot of questions on his videos and was just so intrigued by his channel, I decided to try out coaching on HealthyGamer. I thought maybe this could help me understand why I have this social media addiction. I won't lie, the counseling in itself was a great experience! Mainly because it was so nice to have someone to just talk to about all my issues, and it was nice to actually feel validated about my issues, plus I feel like I learned a lot about myself. But I must remind myself: Why did I come here again? My main reason for trying HG Coaching was to learn about my social media addiction, and do something about it. Now I need to be honest, did HG Coaching actually help me get through my social media addiction? Honestly, not at all. Despite all the discussing we did about my issues, I may have gotten rid of Instagram but I was still using YouTube all day every day. We discussed how this could be because I'm lonely, how this could be because I'm experiencing some sort of negative emotion, but at the end even with understanding that, I still binged these apps. And honestly, it didn't really seem like any amount of coaching was going to change the fact that I am heavily addicted to social media: But then one day, after speaking to many friends and browsing Reddit, I came to a very, very obvious realization: I'm using YouTube and other social media applications because they're just designed to be incredibly addictive. Duh, of course. But what does this mean? It means literally no amount of willpower or understanding of myself is going to change the fact that this is addictive and that I, as any normal human being, would probably end up getting hooked and staying hooked to something that is designed to keep us hooked. I'm not necessarily coming back to social media every day because I'm sad, or because I'm lonely, or because I'm anxious, there is not necessarily any flaw on my end. There are some people I know who aren't even lonely or sad and they themselves are more addicted to social media than I am. And so on that note I felt that paying hundreds of dollars for HG Coaching for something I just did a way more efficient job of solving myself was not really worth it. I solved my issue of social media addiction by just downloading some website/app blockers, blocking the social media app/websites, and getting used to no social media. I overcomplicated an issue which honestly was not that difficult to understand, and did not necessarily require me having to spend hundreds of dollars for coaching. In fact, I'd say that as far as the issue of my social media addiction is concerned, HealthyGamer's free youtube videos were actually FAR more helpful in understanding myself and this issue of social media addiction than coaching itself was. ALL OF THAT BEING SAID, I do not mean to imply that coaching was a bad experience whatsoever. It was in fact a great experience, as I could talk to someone about my emotions, about the issues that are bothering me, etc. etc. If you are someone that is struggling with your emotions and could use someone to talk to, help advise you, or just make you feel validated, I would definitely recommend HG Coaching. But in my case of specifically dealing with social media addiction, I honestly just didn't find it super helpful. If my only goal was to come here and learn to curb my social media usage, I would have probably felt that this was sort of a waste of money.

HealthyGamerGG's coaching sessions have helped me with my audhd, anxiety and depression with keeping things organized and have a better thought process on how to view things positively. I used to observe things negatively which made me anxious in social interactions which happens less now so that's an improvement. Coaching sessions are quite expensive but it was well worth the price, I am also extending my sessions to receive more coaching.

After the pandemic, I just became intensely aware of how emotionally restricted and burdened I was and it became my mission to free myself. I was always an independent type of person, so I did the work entirely on my own, but I eventually found myself reluctantly and skeptically willing to give to give Dr. K's coaching program a shot. I was so surprised at how helpful it was. There are things that just cannot be done alone. Healing is not a single player game. I had never realized just how helpful it was to talk about and unpack emotions and feelings out loud with another safe person there to receive it who could patiently and kindly help you see yourself and your problems from a new angle. If you're like me, I just want you to know that other people can help you.
